FACTS

Now GTFO here


Nets have 2 ABA rings...

Had to quote this for good measure.

ABA ...

Get the **** off this board b
That's like winning a ring in The Big Three! Or Marbury winning in China. There was only like 10 teams.

I know it's the slow part of the year, but no need to entertain such clown car behavior.

Only history the Nets have is being outside of New York. They're still outside of New York despite having a New York address. :rofl:

**** the Nets.

I'd just like to point out that last season, the C/PF players were this:

Kanter/DJ;Mitch;Kornet;Vonleh;LFT;Mario(a little)

And now:

Mitch/Gibson/Portis/Randle/Morris/Iggy (maybe a little)

Feels like an upgrade :-)

Since Fiz doesn't really give a sh*t about defense anyway, would be sort of fun to see this smallball all attack lineup, at times

DSJr
Trier
RJ
Iggy
Randle

Might be fun for a few minutes a game.

Well I guess those Nets trolls only think we're here to mess with.

Now they'll never get to see we spend the majority of our time in group grooming activities like these

Should fit with Adam Silver's newly released plan that once a game each team can call for a "power play" period of 3 minutes when there will be 5 (five) balls on the court.

I never think of going to the Nets board and trolling them.
Nets lovers always want to come here and troll us.

Now what does that say?

Spoiler:
1. They're desperate to find people to interact with because, well, they're the Nyets
2. They think they can become more popular by being trolls. Not too smart, that.

RJ and Iggy are willing enough passers. Randle too.

But yeah, that lineup won't defend too much.

Randle moves the ball as well. And DSJr is a PG, so he passes.

More passing in that lineup then you might think. It's not a "THJr/Burke/Mudiay" lineup.

Then again, Fiz really isn't going to encourage anyone to pass, so there's that issue

Every coach keeps tabs on their players during offseason, this is nothing special.
